About running in Tweed Valley
Kirnie Law above Innerleithen: a short, steep 9km loop over the grassy Tweed Valley hills, with buses from Edinburgh and Galashiels.
One route so far. Kirnie Law from Innerleithen is 8.9km with 340m of climb — steep grassy hillside, faint paths and a summit with the whole valley laid out below. It's short enough for an evening and rough enough to need a map when the cloud is down. There's no railway; buses run along the valley from Edinburgh and Galashiels. Every route has a free GPX download and an honest TRP Grade.
